N.C. Gov. McCrory’s Approval Rating Sinks To New Low

A new poll out Wednesday found North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory’s (R) approval rating dropping to its lowest mark since he took office earlier this year, days after he signed one of the most restrictive voting laws in the country.

The survey from Democratic-leaning Public Policy Polling found that 51 percent of Tar Heel State voters disapprove of the job McCrory is doing, while just 39 percent said they approve. It was the second consecutive month that PPP found McCrory with a negative approval rating, but 39 percent represents a new low in PPP’s polling for the first time Republican.
